Another windy Lake George day with lots of crew from all over, great mob to be with.

Feeling a bit tired after the last 4 days, so just rigged the little stuff as yesterday, 4.4 koncept 43cm wavewands and 19cm decrep woody weedy.

couldn't get comfortable, maybe a bit more chop, couldn't break out of 35s for a long time, then the 37 appeared on the dial. Next run was way out of control, so decided to call it quits before I did myself an injury.

Interestingly the fin has started to break up on the trailing edge, it was too thick and humming like crazy when I first sailed it, seems I thinned it down too much, went through the carbon close to the edge, timber with a thin layer of resin just isn't strong enough. It will have to have some minor surgery when we get home.

Decided to give it a miss today Mike.    1   a few small cuts on feet need to heal.    2    Measured over 30 knots up at town beach.     3   was gonna come out and get some pics, but the salt pan had a dust cloud over it, which was white.     4    I found it a bit chilly and      5   I guess I'm a wimp.

Tongue out just a teaser guys, from GT31

I hope I can deliver today!! I am running out of idea on the gear, getting fatigue.. the MOST important here is the fin.. fin fin fin, my weedie are feeling lagging and not transmitting the full power coming from the sail!! bigs guns are using Ka s 20, getting away with the rake!! I tried again the 23 but I was catching weeds... I think I am too much back foot!! mmmh I see if I can improved by doing some changes, my last chance today!! 10.15 AM and its already 25 knts.. I may take the RSR5.0 for a spin. GREAT time with Jamie ah ah ah funny man and good values Cool. Everyone is fantastic and found Hamma amazing by his size, he brakes all the variables... size does not matter when you see him!!! Lot of tunning and concentrations when you look at them.. this is very serious game!!! love it Wink

Sammy,

Well done and very consistent sailing considering your 5x10 is only less than a knot slower than 2sec peak. 

Nice numbers again Mike.

38, 40, 39... This is getting a bit monotonous guys... Laughing

A monotony that can be seriously enjoyed!  I am somewhat envious of those great sailing conditions (and wind!). Good thing I have my 30 already or I would be seriously chafing at the bit to get over there! As it is I can feel a 35 calling...
